Job description

The Trade Desk is a global technology company and the world’s leading independent platform for digital advertising, with nearly 4,000 employees across more than 30 offices. Our technology helps advertisers reach the right audiences across the open internet — from streaming TV and podcasts to mobile apps, news, and more. 

Advertising powers the content people love. By making it more transparent, effective, and responsible, we help support trusted journalism, quality entertainment, and creators worldwide. The world’s brands and agencies rely on us to reach their customers and grow their businesses responsibly.

The scale of our platform brings unique technical challenges — from processing massive datasets in real time to building systems that operate reliably on a global scale. When you work here, your impact is worldwide. We welcome diverse perspectives, encourage curiosity, and build teams that learn from one another. If you’re driven to solve meaningful challenges, we’d love to meet you.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

• You take on a strategic and consultative trading role in programmatic advertising for a portfolio of relevant advertisers and act as a trusted point of contact for platform, trading, and market-related topics.

• You advise clients on campaign planning, measurement, and optimization, identify growth opportunities early, and develop strategies that support both client goals and sustainable revenue growth.

• You work closely with Account Management and Business Development, bring deep product knowledge to the table, and translate complex data into clear, actionable insights that create measurable value for clients.

• You train new and existing clients on both operational and strategic topics related to our platform and help them unlock the full potential of the TTD product ecosystem.

• You actively drive innovation in programmatic advertising, explore new solutions with curiosity and pragmatism, and share best practices internally and externally to foster continuous learning.

• You use modern AI-enabled tools to improve productivity, make analyses more efficient, and find smarter ways to solve repetitive tasks.

• You bring a personal interest in experimenting with new technologies and AI applications, evaluating their practical value, and turning those learnings into tangible improvements for team and client work.

WHO YOU ARE:

• You are curious, self-motivated, and genuinely want to understand how things work — from platform mechanics to new developments across the digital advertising ecosystem.

• You bring strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, work in a structured way, and stay organized even in dynamic, cross-functional environments.

• You have experience in programmatic advertising, ad tech, or online marketing and feel comfortable in client-facing, consultative roles.

• You communicate complex topics clearly, confidently, and effectively — both in direct client conversations and in collaboration with internal teams.

• You prioritize tasks independently based on impact, manage your time effectively, and focus on solutions that create real value for clients and the team.

• You are open to new technologies, enjoy trying out new tools and ways of working, and are motivated to experiment personally to understand what truly improves productivity and collaboration.

• Excellent written and spoken German and English are required.

• Please upload your CV in English.

• This role is based in Hamburg, with Munich as an option.
